For over 8. 8 years, he has signified The Walt Disney Company, animation, goodwill, fun, laughter, and most of all Walt Disney himself. It was said by Lillian Disney, his wife, that over the years, Mickey and Walt grew together and were mirrors of each others personality. They both started off mischievous and cheeky, but as they grew older preferred to step out of the spotlight and observe others work their magic. President Jimmy Carter once said Mickey Mouse is the symbol of goodwill, surpassing all languages and cultures. When one sees Mickey Mouse, they see happiness.

Mickeys like, Hey Im smart, I can do anything, I get into trouble, but I can get out of it. Im sort of rebellious, you know. I live by my own rules. Hes an adolescent dream, is what he is. Rebelling and making it work, thats Mickey. Writer Ron Suskind during the American Experience Walt Disney special on PBSMickeys most widely known traits are his wholesomeness and charisma. In contrast to this, Mickey is also rather mischievous a scrappy, free spirited rebel with a head full of curiosity, optimism and slight arrogance, Mickey has a habit of finding himself in a wide array of self inflicted troublesometimes comical Mickeys Airplane Kit, sometimes highly consequential Epic Mickey. Nevertheless, he is also quick thinking and crafty and is thus able to save himself from the varying danger, ending out on top in the end. Because of his small size and limited resources, Mickey often relies on his wit to overcome adversity. His craftiness is also put into good use when looking for ways to make life easier for himself, even if he knowingly has to break a few rules in the process, being somewhat of a schemer in this sense The Sorcerers Apprentice, Stayin Cool. While his success elevates his ego and drives him to act selfishly at times Mickeys Piano Lesson, Mickey is a devoted friend and cares deeply for his loved ones.

This is most prominently displayed in his relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Minnie Mouse. The two are shown to be deeply in love with each other, and as such, Mickey has repeatedly gone to great lengths to both ensure Minnies happiness, and to impress her sometimes out of insecurity of losing her, as seen in Mickey Tries to Cook. While he tries his best to avoid danger at all costs, Mickey will immediately force himself to become a valiant hero when Minnie is put into danger Road Hogs. In these instances, Mickey proves himself to be quite skilled in combat, and his craftiness is, again, prominently displayed. In turn, Minnie is an avid supporter of Mickey and openly returns his sentiments. Though his habit of forgetting special occasions and other important matters annoy her Rent Day, Runaway Brain, Minnie simultaneously serves as Mickeys better half, bringing out the best of him, even after his own flaws create significant mayhem. Mickey is also a reliable leader and is well respected amongst his peers because of this. When put in charge of a production, for example such as a stage show or the House of Mouse nightclub theater he tends to be rather professional and composed, even when hecklers and other inconveniences get in the way. Another great example of Mickeys reliability can be seen in various cartoons in which Mickey stars alongside his best friends, the ill tempered Donald Duck and exceptionally clumsy Goofy. Mickey is able to handle issues fairly better than both Donald and Goofy, as his temper and clumsiness are not as distracting for himself as they are for his two comrades. Though whimsical and childlike in his own right, Mickeys maturity shines its brightest when paired with Donald and Goofy showing that, for all his foibles, he can act as a level headed voice of reason when the situation calls for it. Mickeys selflessness is also highlighted when paired with the two. For example, as seen numerous times with Goofy, Mickey tends to act as a passive friend, as he cares a great deal for Goofys happiness, and therefore puts up with a fair amount of nonsense for the latters sake. At times, Mickey can be too caring towards others, which can drive him to disregard his own needs, though he has his limits Hickory Dickory Mickey, Goofys Grandma. This highlights how Mickey is charitable toward both his friends and complete strangers. Empathetic and warm, Mickey will gladly come to someones aid if they appear to be in need Mickeys Good Deed, The Klondike Kid, though this can sometimes act as a weakness, specifically when he allows his sympathetic heart to blind his better judgment Mickeys Cabin.
